Darren Dubwise
|
A long time music collector and harbour of useless musical anecdotes, Darren Dubwise has been involved in Singapore’s bass scene since 1999. After playing an active role in the drum & bass community with Kondense.com & Exitmusik.com, Darren conceived Dubwise in 2006 – a club night based on the Jamaican sound system culture. The end result was a hybrid of reggae, dub, grime, UK garage and the then infant dubstep. The night however was short-lived, but its notoriety was kept alive as a DJ duo when the residents, Darren and Castro, were billed to play as Dubwise at major festivals such as the Good Vibrations Festival and Gilles Peterson’s Worldwide Festival here in Singapore. Darren then brought the Dubwise sound around the region playing gigs in Ho Chi Minh City, Hong Kong and Kuala Lumpur. As a purveyor in the fine art of bass, he has played alongside other renowned bassheads such as Stereotyp, the Gaslamp Killer & Kode9 just to name a few. Dubwise on Facebook |
